	there were a group of people who would show up at his concerts and such with signs proclaiming that John Tesh was actually an alien. At one point John Tesh actually tried to talk to them, and they all ran away. He wound up chasing them down the street, yelling "I just want to talk", but they all kept running.

Stalker Posts: 16,061 Group: Morans Member #2 Joined: February 24, 2005	Also last night's was a bit boring. Also he used the same footage of Max Clifford and that footballer slag woman, but with a slightly more rubbish joke this time. And, thinking about it, didn't he just have to do a digest last time because he'd knacked himself?

Stalker Posts: 16,061 Group: Morans Member #2 Joined: February 24, 2005	But how can he know what the news will be next week? And surely the length of series was determined before the show began, and, thus, before the news had even 'happened'?

Tom Stewart killed me Posts: 6,003 Group: Members Member #73 Joined: October 21, 2006	A lot of it isn't really "this week's news" though, the show has to commision lots of short films and performances etc in advance, so they probably didn't have the material and/or budget to fill 6 shows.

You've seen his screenwipe shows about how much it costs to make even the simplest bit of tv. Music rights clearance, performer/crew money, the cost of scrounging in a skip for bad lighting, etc. Also, the Adam Curtis film may have cost a few pence.
